Harley Quinn Season 5, Episode 7 Review: I"m Really Conflicted About The DC Series" True Villain Reveal After A Wild Story Twist
Warning: This article contains spoilers for Harley Quinn Season 5, Episode 7.Harley Quinn season 5"s latest episode features the aftermath of one of the show"s most shocking events. While we have seen quite a few characters die, it is hard for the show to kill major players from Harley and Poison Ivy"s crew. On top of that, I was never expecting the show to end the life of one of the characters who was created for Harley Quinn. That is why I was shocked to see Frank die from several cuts in Harley Quinn season 5, episode 6.
While the previous episode of the animated DC series was entertaining and had a climactic ending, it wasn"t one of the strongest hours of the season. Based on that, episode 7 is a step up. When last week"s episode of Harley Quinn season 5 ended, I was left with a few questions. While the identity of Frank"s killer was at the top of the list, I was also very interested to see if the play would have any lasting effect on Brainiac, which episode 7 reveals to be the case.
Frank's Funeral Ends With A New Arrival Frankette Is An Adorable & Deadly New Addition To The Show Close First up is the Frank of it all. The character was easily one of the funniest in the animated series. I was afraid his death meant we would never get any new Frank moments, so I was pleasantly surprised when episode 7 opened with Frank"s funeral. While that could have been a grim event, the fact that Frank left a long video to walk everyone through the many steps of his funeral was hilarious. Most of the jokes landed, and there was a major reveal that Frank"s spirit would carry on.
Ivy has a mission, and that must end with the death of Frank"s murderer.
Made out of Frank and Ivy"s DNA is Frankette. The baby plant is adorable, and the dynamic that stemmed from giving Ivy a new child when she was not done mourning/avenging her son was quite interesting. While I thought Ivy would instantly adopt that new child and cherish her, she did not want to focus on Frankette early on. Ivy has a mission and that must end with the death of Frank"s murderer. I mentioned in last week"s review that all signs pointed to Brainiac, though I"m not sure that"s accurate.
